The Cleveland Browns, despite having a 6-8 record, have assumed their position as the NFL's laughingstock. Freddie Kitchens is in over his head, Odell Beckham Jr. is reportedly seeking a trade, and Baker Mayfield has taken a colossal step backwards in his sophomore season, leaving many pundits wondering if he's actually a franchise quarterback. To poke more fun at their incompetence, a clip has re-emerged of Baker berating MVP-favorite Lamar Jackson back in Week 4 when Cleveland toppled the Baltimore Ravens.

That's right, folks.

Mayfield took a brazen shot at Jackson's ability to beat teams with his arm. Fast forward to Week 16, however, and the Louisville product has tossed an NFL-leading 33 touchdown passes and has the Ravens in pole position to achieve home field advantage throughout the playoffs with a 12-2 record.

Ironically enough, it's Baker who should have that sort of criticism thrown his direction after the disastrous campaign he's endured. The 2018 No. 1 overall pick is completing just 60.1% of his pass attempts for 17 touchdowns and 17 interceptions. Furthermore, his 51.8 QBR ranks 18th among qualified gunslingers, a far cry from the lofty expectations he had entering Year 2.

It's about time Mayfield start addressing his own struggles rather than laughably miscalculating the ceiling of other players.
